Butterflies of Greece 2016 Holiday Report 18 - 25 June 2016 Led by Sotiris Alexiou Butterflies of Greece 2016 Holiday Report 18 - 25 June 2016 Led by Sotiris Alexiou Grecian Copper © Peter Greenwings Wildlife Holidays Tel: 01473 254658 Web: www.greenwings.co.uk Email: [email protected] ©Greenwings 2016 Introduction This two-centre butterfly focused holiday was based around the Mount Parnassus area of southern Greece and also Mount Chelmos in the Peloponnese. Our first base in the little town of Delphi had excellent views of the Amfissa valley, the Corinth sea and the mountains of Peloponnese. It lies at an altitude of 1000m and the presence of a ski resort on the mountain, makes the access here easy with a nice, modern, road. This gave us a chance to find many interesting species such as Europe’s smallest butterfly, Grass Jewel, and also to visit the ancient archaeological site of Delphi. We would later move to a hotel on Mount Chelmos on the other side of the Corinth, to seek out a number of endemic butterflies such as Pontic, Chelmos and Zephyr Blues, the rare Odd-spot Blue and a host of other interesting species. Again, a ski centre meant that access was good and both hotels were clean and neat family places. We hoped therefore for good weather, good food and a week spent watching lots of butterflies in these lovely areas. The 12 guests joining Sotiris were Sue, Ian, Andy, Peter, Jennifer, Emma, Chris, Jackie, Mark, John, Elaine and Gill. View from our hotel at Delphi © John What follows is an outline of the week, followed by a daily diary, gallery and species lists. ©Greenwings 2016 2 Day 1, Saturday 18th June. John and Elaine arrived at Athens airport earlier in the day and were met by Sotiris, who spent a little time with them at nearby Mt. Immitos, before the main party arrived. Butterflies seen included Cleopatra, Balkan Marbled White, Freyer’s Grayling, Balkan Grayling, Great Sooty Satyr, Southern White Admiral, Clouded Yellow, Swallowtail and Scarce Swallowtail. They then returned to the airport to meet the other guests (who arrived somewhat later than we’d expected due to a flight delay) and once assembled, drove to Delphi and our hotel, run by the charming Vaso, arriving late in the evening. Day 2, Sunday 19th June. This was Greek Pentecost and meant that many local shops were closed but Vaso’s mum had made some tasty spinach pies for lunch and to these we added some excellent nectarines. High cloud would cover us most of the day, keeping temperatures comfortable, yet enabling the butterflies to fly. Before breakfast Geranium Bronze, Scarce Swallowtail, Swallowtail, Cleopatra and Lattice Brown were seen outside the hotel. House Martins had their nests built above the balconies and Red-rumped Swallows were flying above us, along with Barn Swallows and Swifts. A nest of Rock Nuthatch was built in the roof of an abandoned house about a hundred metres away. The juveniles were just starting to fly around the nest and their parents were encouraging them with their loud Geranium Bronze © Gillian voices. Stop 1. Our first stop was at a meadow covered in the wonderful pink flowered Trigonella, Kidney Vetch, Clovers and other plants, all with a rich aroma. With abundant nectar, the bees were feeding frenetically, their hum intense. The meadow was also full of butterflies… These included Mountain Small White, Zephyr, Turquoise and Adonis Blues, Sooty Copper, Clouded Yellow, Hungarian Skipper, Delattin’s Grayling, Wood White, Speckled Wood, Brimstone, Wall, Balkan and Marbled Whites, Ilex Hairstreak, Meadow Brown, Spotted and Lesser Spotted Fritillaries. Burnet moths including Zygaena fausta were also present. A female Turquoise Blue was seen laying eggs on Kidney Vetch and Peter also found White-banded Grayling. This was only realised after reviewing his photos. White Banded Grayling © Peter Adonis Blue © Peter Turquoise Blue © Ian ©Greenwings 2016 3 Next to the road, on Dwarf Elder, a number of Clearwing moths, Heath and Silver-washed Fritillaries were seen. A Delattin’s Grayling was seen also (later confirmed by Sotiris). Some of the Heath frits here had a striking appearance, with certain individuals displaying an incredible variety of forms, some with very dark wide borders to the upperside hindwings while others more closely resembled the normal form. Stop 2. We moved along to another meadow and were greeted by a slightly worn male Amanda's Blue. A dazzling male Grecian Copper was also seen posing with wings open, trying to obtain as much sunshine as possible. Idas Blue © Gillian Grecian Copper © Chris & Jackie Heath Fritillary © Ian Zephyr Blue © Emma Further into the meadow, a number of skippers appeared, the first being Small Skipper, followed by Large, Mallow and Essex. More Turquoise Blues were found, along with Idas, Zephyr, Holly, Chapman's and Common Blues, Heath Fritillary, Great Banded Grayling, Balkan Marbled White and Brimstone. A few Red Helleborines could be seen at the edges of the fir woodland, so a few of us moved into the shade to look for more orchids. Many more Red Helleborines were found, as were Broad-leaved Helleborines, still in bud and Bird’s-Nest Orchid. A Wood White was seen flying around the very large flowers of Lathyrus grandiflorus that formed patches at the woodland margins. Stop 3. The next meadow at well above 1000 metres altitude, and with a dry creek in the middle, was festooned with all manner of nectar bearing plants. This proved to be a haven for Sooty Copper, Hungarian Skipper, Grizzled Skipper, Large Tortoiseshell, Great Banded Grayling, Small Tortoiseshell, Ilex Hairstreak, Amanda's, Idas, Eastern Zephyr, Common and Chapman's Blues, Small Heath, Meadow Brown and Brown Argus. A Camberwell Beauty caused something of a stir (as they do) gliding serenely down the road and landing in a bush where it was ‘tracked’ and photographed before travelling further on its way. Jennifer and Emma spotted a Cardinal doing much the same as ©Greenwings 2016 4 the Cambi, only much faster and without stopping! We finished with a pairing of Idas Blues and a couple of Lizards scurrying through the vegetation as we ate lunch. It was a perfect spot. Amanda’s Blue © Gillian Clouded Apollo © Chris & Jackie Hungarian Skipper © Emma Greek Clouded Yellow © Peter Stop 4. After lunch, we moved up to the mountain plateau at about 1,800m altitude. The weather was nice, not too cold and with just a mild wind. Here, Greek Clouded Yellows were flying busily over the sward, barely stopping for photos. Clouded Apollo was also seen here, and Escher's Blue. More Idas Blues, Black-veined Whites and Small Tortoiseshells were found. Wall Browns were basking on the rocks in this interesting landscape above the tree line, where beautiful low-growing shrubs, such as Spiny Milk-vetch, Cranesbills and Thymes, Oberthur’s Grizzled Skipper © Andy provided nectar for the butterflies and other insects. A Toadflax with small yellow flowers was found and admired by Jackie and Jenny. A few small wild roses grew at this altitude, with small whitish-rose coloured flowers and also a very aromatic herb with tiny white flowers in crowded whorls, Nepeta parnassica, which is endemic to the area. Stop 5. We took the same road back down and arrived at a woodland meadow where both Idas and Silver-studded Blues were noted, plus Great Sooty Satyr, Grizzled Skipper, Oberthur's Grizzled Skipper, Oriental Marbled Skipper, Comma, Hungarian Skipper and Lattice Brown. We returned to the hotel at about 5pm, in time to prepare for dinner at one of the wonderful restaurants in Delphi. ©Greenwings 2016 5 th Day 3, Monday 20 June. Blue skies greeted us over breakfast on the day of our visit to the famous archaeological site of Delphi. With the thermometer reading 30 Celsius, we took plenty of sun cream and water with us. Stop 1. We ascended each layer of the site, step by step, arriving first at the ancient government buildings. Very soon we were admiring the spectacular Apollo’s temple, the fabled home of the Pythia or Oracle of Delphi. The temple was built in the 4th Century BC, against a magnificent backdrop of high cliffs and Cypress trees. The earliest buildings were of wood, later replaced by a succession of more beautiful and grand marble buildings. Then on to the gymnasium with fantastic views overlooking the temple and valley, and finally the stadium. Emma, who had a keen interest in ancient Greece, and Sotiris, gave us an idea about the rich history and mythology of this place. While visiting archaeological sites in Greece, usually you get opportunities to enjoy nature as well and on the way up we found Ilex Hairstreak, Scarce Swallowtail (occasionally fluttering around Almond trees, presumably laying eggs) and Common Blue. At the stadium, Eastern Bath White and Kruper's Small White were seen. It was certainly worth the ‘climb’. Grizzled and Oriental Marbled Skippers were here, spotted by John, and Ian and Sue found Blue-spot Hairstreak. Bird-wise we were treated to some very lively and noisy Rock Nuthatches, whose calls could be heard across the site. Kestrel and Crag Martin were also seen. Group at Delphi © John Kruper’s Small White © Gillian Blue-spot Hairstreak © Ian Delphi © John Stop 2. Our next stop was just below Delphi, where we searched an area of dry grasses, Jerusalem Sage and Thymes for Grass Jewel, Europe's smallest butterfly. Andy soon found this exquisite little creature no bigger than a large ladybird. They were flying up and down a dry stony track, sometimes ©Greenwings 2016 6 settling on the path. We also saw one apparently laying eggs on a plant of the Genista family.

  • F3.1E Temperate and Submediterranean Thorn Scrub
    European Red List of Habitats - Heathland Habitat Group F3.1e Temperate and submediterranean thorn scrub Summary This habitat comprises inland scrub dominated by thorny shrubs and small trees occurring throughout the temperate and submediterranean lowlands and foothills of Europe, more locally in dry and rocky mountain localities. It is found mostly on dry to mesic, well-drained, relatively base-rich and poor to moderately nutrient-rich soils and is generally a secondary vegetation type, a replacement for or successional stage on the way to mesic broadleaved forests. Typical of forest edges and clearings, abandoned pastures and more or less permanent features like hedgerows, it provides food and shelter for invertebrates, small mammals and birds. Increasing in many places as a result of abandonment of traditional land use, it is itself seen as a threat to species-rich grasslands and progresses, without interruption, to forest. Synthesis The quantitative data lead to the overall conclusion of Least Concern (LC) for the EU28 and the EU28+, for the criteria relating to trends in quality and trends in quantity, even though there is an overal negative trend in quality in most of the countries. In the north-west of the range the habitat is more threatened than in the more continental and submediterranean regions. Overall Category & Criteria EU 28 EU 28+ Red List Category Red List Criteria Red List Category Red List Criteria Least Concern - Least Concern - Sub-habitat types that may require further examination For Northwestern Europe a semi-natural subhabitat 'hedge rows' may be distinguished and assessed separately, as the data shows that the thorn scrub is much more threatened in this Atlantic part of Europe than elsewhere.

In this Newsletter there are two reports of successful trips by EIG members to Mount Chelmos in Greece (Page 9 & 10) and to Hungary (Page 11,12 & 13). These activities are beginning to influence local National Parks and it was encouraging to hear that grazing has resumed in the Latrany Valley in Hungary something that the West Midlands group that went to Hungary in 2006 recommended. It was this group that formed EIG. We are able to organize activities in Europe only if we don’t fall foul of the 1991 EU Travel Directive and the 1993 EU Package Travel Directive. This means for all EIG trips we have to either use a travel company such as Ecotours or book our own flights and accommodation as we did in Greece or to travel independently and meet up at the arranged site as we did in the Ecrins last year. There is however an insurance issue outstanding, which would cover BC from, claims from anyone participating in the same way as they are covered by BC’s insurance for a field event or work party in the UK.

  • Field Guide for Bu�Erfly Iden�fica�On
    Cyprus Field Guide for bu�erfly iden�fica�on The European Bu�erfly Monitoring Scheme (eBMS) aims to promote the monitoring and conserva�on of this group of insects. This scheme relies on thousands of volunteers who systema�cally count bu�erflies following simple rules of a standardised methodology. This includes transects (fixed route), or 15-min counts where all bu�erfly species and individuals are registered. Using all the data collected by volunteers we can determine the status of the bu�erfly popula�ons and protect them effec�vely. This guide aims to facilitate the task of field iden�fica�on of 48 bu�erfly species, the most common species that you can see in Cyprus. This guide also serves as a support tool for those involved in the Monitoring of Bu�erflies through the methodologies standardized by eBMS for all of Europe. You can download this field guide in pdf on the eBMS website Counting butterflies will protect them!

Environmental factors influencing butterfly abun- dance after a severe wildfire in Mediterranean vegetation.Animal Biodiversity and Conservation, 38.2: 207–220. Abstract Environmental factors influencing butterfly abundance after a severe wildfire in Mediterranean vegetation.— Despite the attention given to the ecology of butterflies, little is known about their community response to wildfires in the Mediterranean region. Here, we evaluated the butterfly assemblage two years after a severe, 13,000 ha wildfire in Catalonia (NE Spain) in relation to the surrounding unburned habitat. Using visual transect censuses we assessed community parameters such as abundance, diversity, species richness and equitability in burned and unburned areas. Correspondence analysis was used to analyse specific composition and relative abundance of species in the community. The influence of environmental variables on the abundance of some common species was analysed using generalized linear mixed models, taking spatial effects into account. No significant differences were found between areas for any of the community parameters, and no dominance was detected in the burned area. The structure of the vegetation and the geographical distribution of transects influenced the ordination of species and transects on the correspondence analysis plot. Generalized linear mixed models (GLMM) results underscored the role of nectar availability, fire and vegetation structure on the abundance of most species studied.

Popovic´, M. –Duric´, F. Franeta, J. R. van Deijk & R. Vermeer Abstract This paper presents the first finding of Lycaena helle ([Denis & Schiffermüller], 1775) in the Balkan Peninsula on Balkan (Stara Planina) Mts. The butterfly was discovered in the bordering region between Serbia and Bulgaria. European distribution of this boreo-montane species is confined to northern parts of the continent with isolated colonies in central and south-western Europe.
